1.  I cannot stand, nor tolerate, poor spelling.  It is my biggest pet peeve.  Following closely behind poor spelling is improper apostrophe use.  ”Its” does not equal “it’s”.  Let’s all learn about possessives and contractions.  Actually, it’s any improper punctuation.  Finally, there is grammar.  Don’t even get me started on your bad, bad grammar.

2.  Starbucks makes my life complete.  This past month was surprisingly easy, BUT I went back like a crack addict today.  $4 coffees make me happy )

3.  I tend to quit things that don’t come easy for me:  school, dance, jobs, businesses, relationships, hobbies.  I need constant encouragement from the people around me when I am struggling.  I don’t know if it’s low self-esteem or just sheer laziness…

4.  I use ellipsis too often…I also don’t know how to pluralize “ellipsis”…

5.  I was born in Ontario.  I used to hang onto my “Eastern” roots, but now I am loyal to my life in the West.  I love Alberta and I can’t imagine living anywhere else.

6.  I hate talking on the phone, for the most part.  There are a few people who are granted immunity, mostly my family.  I actually call them randomly, without purpose, just to ramble on as I drive home from work ;o)

7.  I decided on one of my daughters’ names when we bought their cribs.  Yes, she is named after her crib.  I will always be haunted by that…

What are 7 random facts about you?

PS, I hate the new Facebook…
